Sweep your partner off their feet this Valentine with a memorable dining occasion and overnight stay at one of the Midlands most enchanting stately home.

The sweeping drive to Weston Park, the 17th century stately home on the Staffordshire / Shropshire border will spellbind any couple and the venue provides a versatile and special treat.

The intimate Valentine occasion takes place on Wednesday 14th February starting with Champagne on arrival, guests will then enjoy a romantic four-course dinner prepared by award winning chef, Guy Day. Served in either the formal Dining Room or the Victorian Orangery, both of which overlook the Italian Gardens, diners can enjoy the cuisine.

To complete the romantic evening, accommodation can be booked within one of Weston’s 24 bedrooms. Each with their own distinctive character, the accommodation is exactly what one would expect from such a magnificent location.

“Valentine Dining has always been a special occasion,’ states Kate Thomas, Weston Park’s Sales & Marketing Manager. “We have a harpist playing music throughout the meal adding to the evening’s romantic atmosphere and we can add a little extra sparkle by arranging for roses or other gifts to be delivered to the room or table.”

The Dining Occasions which consist of a four-course dinner costs £70 per person. To incorporate the overnight accommodation and full English breakfast the cost is £165 person.

Reservations are limit, for further information telephone 01952 852100 or email enquiries@weston-park.com.
